RE: Still no sound. I have a Dell Demension 2350 and a Intel 82801Soundcard.

[Kyle Lagonegro (Student-Lagone37)]

All the sliders are off zero and unmuted, not just master volume, none are that high, but
my speakers are turned up so load, the kids in the dorm building over are going to be
angry when I finally here this test sound.

system-config-soundcard has been ran, I think...  I've been punching in so many things
it's hard to keep track...  I'll run it again and then give you those outputs.

In theory, it should work fine.

Have you run system-config-soundcard and simply answered yes when it
asks if you hear the test sound?  I'm guessing maybe you have since the
volume controls work.

Did you turn all of the volume controls up or just the master volume?
You'll need to turn up at least PCM, Master and possibly OGain if there
is one.  You may need to adjust other volume controls.

System-Config-Soundcard:
[root@localhost ~]# system-config-soundcard
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pswitch
  Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right

Playing WAVE '/usr/share/system-config-soundcard/sound-sample.wav' : Signed 16 bit

No sound...  As per usual.

Also, post the output of this command:
  cat /etc/modprobe.conf

cat /etc/modprobe.conf:
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/modprobe.conf

alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd


Then we'll know which drivers are loaded and which drivers it is trying
to load.

I hope this helped...  If anyone wants anything else let me know.  Thank you.

Kyle, this worked for me - there are 2 settings which have "sense" in
their names and they are new in kernel 2.6.10; mute them and see what
happens.  I can post a pointer to a helpful web page at Clemson Univ.
if I can find it.

Curt, if you run across the URL for that web page at Clemson, please 
post it even though Kyle's difficulties are resolved.
